Dancing With an Armful of Daisies…

Back when I started writing
Picking Daisies in Purgatory my life actually felt like purgatory — it seemed like everything in my
life had stagnated, and I was just waiting around in some kind of holding
pattern for something to happen. So I figured while I was waiting I might
as well entertain myself (and hopefully you as well) by writing about events
and ideas that mattered to me. I was trying to pick whatever daisies I
could find.

I guess over the last couple
of years I must have finally burned off the last of whatever bad karma I had
hanging over me. Suddenly everything started to change. My stagnant little life
started moving again. Things started going right. I got a fantastic
promotion complete with an amazing boss who happily let me off the leash. The
negative people that plagued various parts of my existence suddenly picked up
and moved on. I met the love of my life and have experienced more personal
happiness than I actually thought was possible. And after two years of
searching I finally found the perfect house to call home.

This past year I haven’t
been picking daisies – they’ve practically been thrown at me. And I am
grateful for every last one of them. I’m not giving up the blog just yet, but
it may still be a while before you see me around here again regularly. Now that
I have all these beautiful flowers, this happy girl is going to sit back and
enjoy them for just a bit longer. Can you blame me?
